DEAD, DEAD IN VILLA DEL RIO.

Book one of the Maddie Ledoux Mysteries.

It s 1978, and Sunday school director and philanderer Gary Marsh is found murdered. Maddie Ledoux, recently fired for creating the “hell corner” where the body was found, is the prime suspect.

Maddie knows she didn’t do it. So who did? Maybe it s Maddies nephew, a troubled child whose sole purpose seems to be tormenting his aunt. Or maybe its Pastor Mike, who’s hell-bent on growing the church, no matter what. No one knows, and it s up to Maddie to prove her innocence as the church’s annual fundraiser approaches, and preparation for the event will not be slowed, even as the risk of another death lingers. Murder, schmurder—they need this.

With laugh-out-loud humor and twists around every corner, Dead, Dead in Villa del Rio is an exciting debut novel that captures the spirit of the 1970s and examines what it means to truly love thy neighbor.
